Default Accidentally converted date mm/dd/yy to a 5 digit number

Somehow I accidentally hit a key(s) and caused my dates in one column of my
worksheet to convert to corresponding 5 digit numbers. Each date has its own
unique number (i.e. 7/1/2005 now reads 38534). I want to change it back so
that is actually displays the dates. How do I do that?

I'm using MS Office Excel 2003 running on XP.

Thanks.
